| Course Description | This course explores the world of Chinese theater: where a heroine is resurrected through the power of love, a filial son saves his mother from underworld torment, and stalwart workers fight for revolution. Examining texts in many genres/forms-from the 16th century romantic drama The Peony Pavilion to the 20th century revolutionary opera The Red Lantern - we investigate the versatility of Chinese drama to encompass politics, history, social movements, and human emotions. Connecting texts to stage practice, we explore gender fluidity in performance, theories of theater, "star culture," and cross-cultural work. |
